12 Tiniest Micro Bikinis To Shop For That Barely-There Look
A hot summer, guaranteed.
If there’s one thing we can glean from stylish A-listers, it’s that skin is definitely in. And in the world of swimwear, that looks like thong bikinis, underboob cutouts, and other revealing styles. These cheeky styles aside, no suit is as skin-forward as the micro bikini.
Big proponents of the itty-bitty suits are the members of the Kardashian-Jenner clan, who often share snaps of their barely-there sets (two of them have their own swimwear lines, so it’s not a surprise). Kendall Jenner consistently rocks thong and G-string bikinis; meanwhile, Kim Kardashian once famously posed on main in an itty-bitty vintage Chanel bikini, which Jennifer Aniston later wore on the December 2022 cover of Allure.
Fashion supernovas such as Bella Hadid and Dua Lipa are also known to slay the micro style. Hadid has been spotted in butt-baring looks, while Lipa has been known to rock various cheeky styles, including a Hello Kitty-inspired crochet set.

Dua Lipa is a big fan of GCDS’ cartoon-inspired offerings. She previously wore a Hello Kitty swim set and a Patrick Star net dress from the brand.
